I believe that Steampunk is more than just brass and watchparts. It's finding a way to combine the past and the future in an aesthetic pleasing yet still punkish way. It's living a life that looks old-fashioned, yet speaks to the future. It's taking the detritus of our modern technological society and remaking it into useful things. Join me as I search for items for my house that combine the scientific romanticism of the Victorians with our real present and imagined future.

Valves for your Bathroom
Spotted this faucet by Watermark in a magazine recently.
Don't the handles look they should be controlling a city water main rather than your sink?
Love steampunk! My friend and I have this dream that we will open a steampunk coffee shop/boostore/art gallery. I'll definitely look to your blog for inspiration for the decor :)

I've always wondered what it'd be like to have an entirely Steampunk house...
